Here we are again. A new month. And for us, hopefully, we can relax a bit.

January was a very cold month for Floridians. Needless to say, I do not like cold weather at all. Thankfully, it's only cold a few days at a time then it's back to sunshine and warm weather.

I didn't get much accomplished in January as far as writing is concerned. I doubt February will be much better. It seems just when I get started, something else needs my attention.

As you know, THE FERRY CROSSING, is my current work in progress, that will be back in full swing, so to speak. I pushed back the release date to April now so I can take my time without too many interruptions. I hope. Everly is looking for an adventure and selects an island off the coast of Florida to visit. She knocks a man flat on his backside on the ferry boat when she exits her car. From there her adventure begins! But not in the way she envisioned.

THEN THERE WERE FIVE is my next novel in my works in progress undertaking, working on it when I can. The release date is far into the future, I expect, possibly late summer now. This is the story of a young woman whose sister dies leaving three young children. Taking on their care is a monumental task which she undertakes, increasing her household to four. Then without warning it becomes five.

I'm revisiting my THE LADIES OF SUMMER PLACE series. I'm writing about an attorney, CHARLAYE BELLWOOD. I'm excited to see how her story will pan out.

Another idea swirling around in my head is ANASTASIA'S MOUNTAIN. I've put that one on hold until I have more time to focus on her story.

And another I want to revisit is the FAIRE WHIMSY BLEU series one last time. We'll see if that comes to fruition!

Until next month! Take care and count your blessings!
